You are the best mom ever!
"so it's true, when all is said and done, grief is the price we pay for love."
-e.a. bucchianeri
One day, you will find someone who loves you exactly as you are, just like I do. I love you too, Mom.
DEVI & NALINI VISHWAKUMAR + relationship development NEVER HAVE I EVER (2020– )
I love you. You’re my only child. You’re my whole family.
Never Have I Ever (2020 - ) 1x10 “…said I’m sorry”
you are a doctor. you know the names of every single bone in mohan’s body and of all the muscles that make up devi’s smile, you know her genes better than anyone else—you carried her below (and in) your heart for nine months (forever). you are a doctor, and you could not save your husband.
it is in the dead of night that you blame yourself, and you do wonder why devi doesn’t blame you. you could not save him, you could not save him, and you still think about how you would have saved him. you need him, like you need air to breathe, like a compass needs a north pole, and now that mohan is gone, you are the compass point, spinning in circles, looking for something to ground yourself to.
you wake up in a cold, empty bed, and reach for his hand. you never stop hoping it will appear.
(perhaps this whole time, you have been reaching for the wrong hand)
